David Price reminds Twitter haters that he's good after rough outing

Reigning AL Cy Young Award winner David Price had a rough night on Saturday in the Rays’ 7-4 loss to the Red Sox at Fenway Park. In seven innings of work, Price allowed all seven Red Sox runs, including two home runs to David Ortiz.

Then, to make matters worse, he apparently checked Twitter and saw something he didn’t like. So Price took the only reasonable approach and tweeted his resume.

No one’s here to tell David Price what to do, but this seems as good a reminder as any to the rest of us why it’s not a great idea to take to Twitter to vent at stressful times. Price didn’t actually say anything a Rays fan wouldn’t want him saying: Essentially, “I had a rough outing but I know I’m good at this and that I’ll bounce back.”

But the timing of it, and the need to indulge the anonymous Red Sox fans tweaking him after a loss, reveals a side of Price that absolutely everyone has but no one really wants to show. Given the circumstances, he has every right to feel sensitive and defensive and a bit angry. It’s just probably best to keep those feelings off Twitter.
